M/S Kailash Store vs Union Of India

The Supreme Court held that under Section 11(6) of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, the High Court erred in limiting the disputes referred to arbitration, as it should have allowed all disputes raised by the appellant to be adjudicated. The Court appointed Shri D.R. Bhatia as the sole Arbitrator to resolve all disputes between the parties, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive resolution rather than a piecemeal approach. The appeal was disposed of with directions for the Arbitrator to complete the proceedings within six months.
